Functionally, neurons come in three varieties; motor neurons, sensory neurons and interneurons. Motor neurons conduct motor impulses from the CNS to the muscles. Sensory neurons conduct motor impulses from the rest of the body to the CNS. Interneurons connect the sensory to the motor so we can respond to incoming sensory stimuli.

A knee-jerk reflex employs motor neurons and what?
it employs sensory and motor neurons
What function type are motor neurons?
motor neurons carry message from inter neurons and transmit it to different parts of the body.
What is the direction of impulse for motor neurons?
The direction of impulse for motor neurons is away from the brain.
Sensory neurons and motor neurons are connected by?
Interneurons
Most lower motor neurons are located where?
Motor neurons are nerve cells that are located in the motor region of the cerebral cortex or brain stem.
What are similarities between sensory and motor neuron?
Motor neuron has got a motor.. but you have to peddle sensory neurons.
Similarities of motor and sensory neurons?
Sensory neurones carry impulses to the CNS, motor neurones carry impulses to muscles.
